During the 1997/98 season Juventus and Bologna, their paths crossed at the Stadio Delle Alpi in Turin when the championship was close to finalization. For Juventus needed a victory to finally put your hands on the Scudetto number twenty five of its glorious history, and the opportunity just happened against Bolognese May 10, 1998. Inter's main rival in a tournament full of hot controversy, that Sunday was a guest The clash of Bari to the summit between the two teams had already happened before April 26 and a goal by Del Piero had put in the attic the dreams of a pass by Inter, the game that would have gone down in history as one of the contact in 'penalty area between the hosts and the entire Juventus Iuliano Ronaldo. In the penultimate round of the season with a 3-4-1-2 which Marcello Lippi lined up the Old Lady provided a rear package consists Montero, Iuliano Tacchinardi and the same defense at the door by Peruzzi, with the shift in the midline Torricelli's camp to complete a quartet which also included Deschamps, Davids and Pessotto. A Zidane was given the usual task of multimillion along the offensive front and to arrange for supplies of bits Del Piero and Inzaghi. Just the former atalantino, man on whom the company had put a decision in the summer so as to leave from Christian Vieri (Atletico Madrid to the English) and Alen Boksic (back to Lazio), with the number ten would form one of the black and white pairs of the most prolific Juventus history. In that season the two by adding the beauty of thirty-nine league goals in eighteen (without penalties) for Philip and twenty-one (made with four penalty) for Alexander.
luck in his coat buttoned up (despite the weather "summer" in the afternoon in Torino), Renzo Ulivieri Bologna presented with the classic 3-4-3, in which Roberto Baggio, Kennet Andersson and Kolyvanov represented the end of the game for the guests. That immediately showed their danger: after just eleven minutes the Russian striker, a right-footed volley on the action arose out of the corner, took advantage in the Bolognese. Juventus, appeared dazed by the sudden blow received, could not find a good reaction now, risking, on the contrary, the network can be KAPPAO: Andersson missed it a favorable opportunity to bring his team up 2-0 on assists the wild Kolyvanov. Madama was materializing a nightmare: that in the game weather was supposed to be a sort of walkway in front of white fans to celebrate the almost certain conquest of the new flag was instead to become a tremendous defeat.
Lippi sniffed the danger and take the right correction on initial training, reversing the positions on the field and Tacchinardi Torricelli with the result of being able to shake his lethargy by Juventus. Pessotto Zidane built and the action that led to the balanced Inzaghi 34 'of the first portion of the game, with the French striker gave Juventus an inviting ball, able to pierce then Sterchele. The tip sensed that the defense of Bologna, too slow in applying the tactics of the offside could give him more attractive to implement other network access points. 5 'minutes of recovery was repeated in taking advantage of the hosts, assisted again by the immense talents of Zidane. And holiday party was to be - finally - was to become, if they did not put across the two former Juventus challenge, Morocco and Roberto Baggio, to complicate the situation, with the midfielder who sewed a valuable assist to the Divine Codino, infallible in bringing the temporary 2-2.
"My fourth Juve is a mixture of creativity, imagination and cynicism ," Lippi said his team about a month before the challenge with the Bolognese. And he knew that training the right ingredients: Deschamps for Fonseca and out - a few minutes later - in Pecchia instead Dutchman Davids. Madame took off the clothes of the Old Lady to launch fierce the office of Bologna. He ended up finding the net again with the third Inzaghi, bravo to conclude with the plate left action prepared by the newcomer Fonseca. Bologna, who had started the match with three strikers, the term "blunt", and then removing the first Kolyvanov Roberto Baggio Davide Fontolan to enter and Crystal. The team ended up just like he used to buttoning his coach with his coat. It was useless to the desperate move of the technician from San Miniato to throw into the fray Shalimov instead of Morocco, with the intention to bring back a few feet below the center of gravity of the game. It was too late.
The Inter result, a 2-1 defeat in Bari, at which point no interest to anyone: Juventus became the champion of Italy. One hundred years of the championship, from that first championship since 1898 and finished on the shirts of Genoa, and twenty-five titles ended up on the chest of the Old Lady. One of every four. Even less, if we consider that a horse of the two World Wars, the league remained stagnant for several seasons.
When the final triumph of the statements made by Filippo Inzaghi condensed in a few words the mood of the environment Juventus at that particular moment in history Juventus' scudetto A fully deserved. Before we made it difficult for Lazio, then it was rebuilt under the Inter, who has stood up to the last. But you can not have doubts about the legitimacy of our success. They accuse us for Empoli's goal and the penalty on Ronaldo: Yes, we had two episodes in favor close, but I think others forget the advantages they've come in the past. The truth is that we bother because we win too, but I do not care absolutely: this is a day of celebration, I will not spoil thinking about certain things
